@HomeOfCricket Day 4 is getting to be a bit of a risk as might be no cricket or a short day where you still have to pay the full price. Need to price day 4 tickets to reflect that.
So the new chancellor finds a whole in the finances then doubles it by offering massive public sector pay rises. Then doesn’t fix it by taking money away from old people and cancelling more hospitals despite the demand. As many have said, just the thin end of the wedge.
@doctor_oxford Surely you can’t blame one man for a global pandemic claiming millions of lives? Very few of us have ever been in this position so very difficult to say we would have been better. Pride comes before a fall.
@chrischirp@IndependentSage Done a decent bit of travelling this year on planes and trains and masks now very uncommon. Odd few people but generally everyone just living normally. Your advice is very precautionary and it’s largely ignored.normality is the new pandemic and COVID is old news. Move on perhaps?
@TCNoel I’ve been working in person since May 2020 with appropriate controls. Latterly these have reduced to zero, our site has 2500 people and no unexpected issues. It’ll be ok
@Kit_Yates_Maths Life has risk. To live it is a privilege not a right. To live it well is the ambition, life without risk is wasteful. Humans happily have the choice, fear or achievement. Why climb mountains? Why play sport? All have risk yet we do it to live.
@chrischirp Great news. And quite predictable from the data. Shame you didn’t predict it however the great thing about twitter is that others did. Tough stuff this pandemic science for sure!!!
@Kit_Yates_Maths So I know that you know it’s not as simple as this. Following James Ward it’s clear that vaccination plus immunity is useful, not for reinfection but for severity of illness. This is well described. Infection is no longer the enemy.
@sumitriptan It’s just a really slow repayment rate. Not sure paying off a 100k debt at about 1k a year will ever look great in 4 monthly statements. At that cost it’s less than a cup of coffee a day so just don’t worry. (Easy for me@to say)
